Sinckler has started both of England's autumn Tests and now the 'Young Bull' is keen to build upon his display against the All Blacks - having landed a trademark hit on centre Jack Goodhue.

'As a tight-head your bread and butter is your scrums, but it's nice to get in their faces a bit and give them a taste of their own medicine,' said Sinckler.

'One of the things I love about rugby is that you can always let out some frustration in tackle. Jack Goodhue felt that at the weekend, which was nice. I heard his ribs crack a little bit. But we've only played two games, so we've got another two to back it up. I can't wait.'

Eddie Jones has called on England to 'physically' smash Japan at Twickenham this weekend

LET'S HOPE JAMIE GEORGE WORKED ON HIS LINEOUT

Jamie George struggled with his lineout against New Zealand last weekend, finding his man just five times out of 10. By contrast, the man he replaced, Dylan Hartley, managed a 100 per cent record from his five first-half throws. No pressure Jamie!

England have a short three-day turnaround after their opening game in Japan next year, so players were given Sunday and Monday off to leave them with reduced preparation time for the Brave Blossoms.

The team management even called in a specialist chef to prepare Japanese food.

'There were loads of plates of sushi and all the fat boys were looking at each other and saying, "Is this play on?!" said Sinckler. 'I didn't know if it was a test or not - you never know with Eddie!

'I didn't want to indulge too much because Wednesday is normally our hardest session of the week… you don't want to be running around with two kilos of sushi in you.

'Eddie's quite good with that stuff, giving us a flavour of Japan and what to expect out there for the guys lucky enough to get selected. He even joked that we've got to eat with chopsticks the whole week. I was like, "Oh God - room service!"'

Sinckler relishes the chance to let out frustration in the physical collisions

Sportsmail columnist Joe Marler has praised the ball-carrying ability of the Lions youngster and, at Wednesday's press conference, he asked Sinckler if he now feels like he belongs in the starting shirt.

Sinckler replied: 'It's not one of those things where you think, "OK, I've had one or two good performances, it's my shirt now".
